Oulton Park 2013 Rounds 10/11/12

Time for a thread as its this weekend. Short break since Thruxton for the teams to repair and improve cars, Dynamics and Speedworks have both been publically testing as well as others, fingers crossed that Andy Neate and IPT arrive with their freshly built Cruze NGTC.

Oulton traditionally provides great racing, and hot weather is forecast...

I'm going to predict that if your lucky, we will only see ONE new entry at Oulton Park this weekend!!!

I really, really want to be proved wrong!!

Isn't Neate supposed to be out testing this week? Has he done any running yet?

It won't be the Motorbase Focus, that is pencilled in for Croft.

Why? Could be anything? Dave Newsham walked out on another team perhaps?

You've obviously not seen the VW Cup. There's a few drivers who'd be capable in an S2000 car in that BTCC field.

well yeah, he is best of the new comers but still a quite gap meanwhile....

with Kaye unable to score , Wood is surely high favorite on this track to walk away with lead

Girling could win two races, no S2000s could finish the other race and he would be level in the trophy table......

Not as far as I know. From Twitter, it seems to me that they're still burning the midnight oil to get it done. Surely that's going to result in a car turning up at Oulton with hardly any running at all and not really being in a position to do anything in the races other than shakedown? Perhaps Croft would have been a better target.

Edit: Looks like they've got the car fired up. I presume a little shakedown tomorrow, then deliver the car by racebox to Oulton.

Not much left to do by the looks of it.

"I've been in the position before where I've gone into a race weekend with a car that I hadn't had the chance to gel with properly, and it isn't something I want to do again."

Oh wait, that was from when he wasn't going to be at Donington

The teams facebook page said they will be..

I understand they intend to do some testing tomorrow before they go to Oulton Park?

Fingers crossed testing goes well for them otherwise..

At this point, who cares?

Even if, and it's a big if, the car is good, it'll still look crap because of the driver.

I have a hospitality box over looking the first corner at Oulton Park and due to a company not paying the bill I dont have any time to fill it so it will be empty this weekend which is really annoying. If any one is looking for a reduced price entry ticket then please DM me.
